International Sanctions 2016

Every effort is made to ensure that this information is current but in order to ensure compliance with the most up-to-date sanctions measures, you are encouraged to refer directly to the relevant legislation and laws and to seek legal advice where necessary.

The primary Bermuda law that gives effect to international sanctions is the International Sanctions Regulations 2013.pdf which lists the UK legislation that are given force of law in Bermuda. These regulations are amended from time to time as new measures are extended to the British Overseas Territories and as existing ones are repealed.

The above Order has now been made and published and comes into force on 14 December 2016 and can be found here.

The Order amends articles 9, 10, 12 and 14 of the Iran (Sanctions) (Overseas Territories) Order 2016 to include a specific prohibition on the use of ships, aircrafts and vehicles to carry certain goods from Iran. Those articles already include prohibitions on the use of ships etc. to carry specified goods to Iran. They also contain prohibitions on the transport of certain goods from Iran but, following internal review, it was identified that the prohibitions should be expanded to specifically include the use of ships, aircraft and vehicles for this purpose, which is consistent with UN and EU sanctions against Iran
